What to Know About Personal Injury Claims in Ohio
Ohio law allows injury victims to recover compensation if someone else’s negligence caused their injury. But the system isn’t always fair. Insurance companies will try to protect their bottom line, and that means paying you as little as possible.
Ohio also follows comparative fault rules, meaning your compensation can be reduced if the insurance company convinces a jury that you were partly at fault. That’s why having a knowledgeable Ohio personal injury attorney matters.
You only get one chance to resolve your claim. We make sure it’s done right.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Ohio Personal Injury Cases
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Ohio?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. This is known as the statute of limitations. However, there are exceptions—especially if a government entity is involved or if the injury wasn’t discovered right away. To protect your rights, it’s smart to talk to a Worthington personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.
How much does it cost to hire Harris Law for a personal injury case?
We handle all injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay anything upfront. We only get paid if we recover money for you—either through a settlement or a verdict. If we don’t win, you don’t owe us anything.
Can I still recover compensation if I was partly at fault?
Yes, possibly. Ohio follows a comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages if you were less than 51% at fault, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Contact Harris Law today to discuss the details of your specific case.
Will my personal injury case go to court?
Most personal injury claims settle without a trial. At Harris Law, we do the work and focus on securing the best possible result for you as efficiently as we can.
How much is my personal injury case worth?
The value of your case depends on several factors, including the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost income, and how your life has been affected. We’ll take a look together to calculate the full impact and fight for every dollar you’re owed.
How long will my case take to resolve?
Some cases settle in a few months. Others take longer, especially if the injuries are severe or the insurance company is dragging its feet. We’ll keep you informed every step of the way and push to resolve your case efficiently, without compromising what you deserve.
What should I do right after an accident in Ohio?
If you’re hurt in a car crash, fall, or any other incident, try to:
- Get medical care immediately
- Take photos of the scene and your injuries
- Report the incident to the police or property owner
- Avoid giving statements to insurance adjusters
- Contact our personal injury legal team to protect your rights
